Last Updated on:
Michael Smith Engineers Ltd, the UK’s trusted pump specialist, has announced the launch of two high-performance pump series from Finish Thompson Inc. (FTI)—a global expert in corrosive chemical handling.
The new UCR and UCP ranges expand FTI’s respected ULTRAChem® series. These magnetically driven, ANSI-dimensional lined-centrifugal pumps are purpose-built for tough chemical transfer tasks, where reliability, efficiency, and corrosion resistance are paramount.
Designed with maximum chemical resilience in mind, the UCR series features a pure ETFE-lined housing, integrated barrier liner, and over-moulded magnets. It’s ideally suited for the harshest industrial settings, including chemical processing, metal finishing, mining operations, and fume scrubbing systems.
The UCP series, meanwhile, offers a more cost-effective option without sacrificing key performance. Constructed with polypropylene and ETFE, it delivers robust hydraulic capability while maintaining the durability expected of the ULTRAChem name—making it an excellent choice for budget-conscious operations requiring dependable chemical resistance.
“We are delighted to bring the UCR and UCP series to the UK market,” said Jason Downing, Sales Director at Michael Smith Engineers Ltd.
“Our customers in the chemical industry already rely on the ULTRAChem range for its outstanding performance. These new additions offer even greater flexibility, reliability, and value—meeting the diverse and demanding needs of corrosive liquid transfer.”
With a strong reputation for solving complex pumping challenges, Michael Smith Engineers continues to support UK industries with expert advice and dependable pump solutions for aggressive fluids including acids, solvents, slurries, and flammable liquids.
